    Welcome!

    Sorry about your bad experience on NAM...I've lurked there for years but was never feelin' it over there, if you know what I mean. That place has always had a weird vibe.

    Welcome to the addiction. The knowledge that was once on NAM has been over here for quite a while. Ask away.....but we need pictures first.

    Welcome to M/A! Many of us used to be active in NAM, but, as you say, MUCH has changed over the years there and it has NOT been for the better. I hope you will find some solace here. :Thumbsup:

    No response yet... I even asked them to delete my account, but nothing. I disputed the charge with my credit card company, so hopefully I get it back. If not, no big deal.. Lesson learned :D

    Need to know the following

    Device type: PC, Mac, phone, phablet, tablet, some other sort of device.

    Operating System

    Browser

    Then I can start to diagnose the issue.

    Mostly using my work PC. It's a Dell Optiflex 9020. At home I use a Lenovo laptop. But same issue when using that as at work.
    Or my Iphone.
    I figured out how to do it via the URL though.
    At the bottom of this page it says "manage attatchments"
    So I add them one by one down there then right click, open them in a new window, copy URL and paste it. round about way but it works :)
